Verb [Vietnamese]

Etymology: This word is semantic rather than merely onomatopoeic, which makes /ɛːk/ an unusual rhyme even for southern dialects (the old rhyme /ɛːk/ has developed into in most words, from example, Vietnamese hạch < Proto-Vietic *-hɛːk). Some authors have spelt it mét instead. See also ẹc. Etymology templates: {{ncog|vi|hạch}} Vietnamese hạch, {{ncog|mkh-vie-pro|*-hɛːk}} Proto-Vietic *-hɛːk Head templates: {{head|vi|verb|||head=|tr=}} méc, {{vi-verb}} méc
